Patient's question:
When the child was young, the doctor carefully checked the pilonidal sinus and said it was not necessary to have surgery. Now at 11, he often has stomach pain and goes to the toilet every 5 or 6 days. Is this pilonidal sinus related to it?Doctor's answer:
Dear consultant,A pilonidal sinus, also known as a pilonidal cyst, is a chronic sinus tract or cyst that grows within the soft tissues of the sacral region, between the buttocks, and contains hair. It is unrelated to infant constipation. It is recommended to adjust the baby's diet, consuming more fruits and vegetables.
This is the advice for the question "When the child was young, the doctor checked for a pilonidal sinus and said surgery was not necessary." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
